Our very first woman Vice President

Our very first woman Vice President

So yesterday as I watched our new President and his Vice President being sworn in I was crying. It was not just that I was so happy that the last four years were over (I was over the moon for that) or that it felt like the country is going to go into a different direction (we are all praying for that) but it was because I never thought I would ever see a woman Vice President. 

Growing up in my Era, little girls never dreamt about becoming President or Astronauts or anything in the male dominated world I grew up in. So to see a woman, a mixed colored woman at that, taking the oath made me ball like a baby. It gave me pride, it gave me hope for our country, that change is possible. 

That little girls all over could see themselves in our new Vice President and they too, could have a different dream, a dream without limits. 

We continued with the woman power theme as Lady Gaga started off singing and then Jennifer Lopez gave us chills and tears as she so beautifully sang and spoke to the Latin women of the country. Again I cried as I was so proud, proud to be an American again, proud to be a part Latino woman but most of all proud to see such strong, powerful women changing the world. 

When 22 year old Amanda Gorman, the poet from Los Angeles got up to say her opening poem for this administration, it was clear why President Biden picked her. 
Again I was in tears as she spoke so eloquently about bringing us together, about overcoming obstacles and about never giving up. 

"The new dawn blooms as we free it," she said. "For there is always light, if only we are brave enough to see it – if only we are brave enough to be it."

This was my favorite part of the whole poem as I always saying 
Be the change you want to see. Be brave, never give up, keep believing because yes, Virginia there is a Santa Claus. Tinkerbell was in full force today, anything was possible, we can and will change the world with love and not hate, with compassion not separation, with 
open mindedness and not closed minds, we can and must change the world we live in or one day we won't have a free country anymore. 

It was a beautiful day, filled with hope and new beginnings and even though the truly classy thing to do, would have been for Trump to be there as every other sitting President has done for the last 100 years, passing the touch on to the next President electe, he did not. Vice president Pence did show up and show out, as a classy man should and we the people thank him for that. 

So today my friends, I will leave you with this, there is always room for change, there will always be haters, people who want to divide us instead of uniting us. There will always be hate for others who are different but love conquers all. If we stand together, if everyone of us does one thing, takes one stand, be that person that makes a difference then yes, we can change the world. 
Again I leave you with these moving words from Amanda Gormans poem that are for all of us to learn from. 

*The new dawn blooms as we free it," she said. "For there is always light, if only we are brave enough to see it – if only we are brave enough to be it."

And the words of our newly elected President:

"For without unity there is no peace, only bitterness and fury, no progress, only exhausting outrage. No nation, only a state of chaos. This is our historic moment of crisis and challenge. And unity is the path forward. And we must meet this moment as the United States of America."

"Be the change you want to see"

"And just when the caterpillar thought his life over...he turned into a beautiful butterfly"
